The Power of Statement Pieces

Posted by Jalisa on Apr 15, 2014 under Casual

Hello Beauties!

Today's post is all about statement pieces and how much of a difference they can make to an outfit. I want you to just imagine what this outfit would look like if I removed the vest, necklace, bracelets, and had on a pair of solid colored shoes. It would look extremely plain, right? While statement pieces can be worn with more interesting outfit pieces, they truly shine and standout when paired with simpler ones, such as this plain light blue shirt and light blue jeans. There are quite a few of you out there that would consider yourselves simple and like it that way, I've spoken with you, so I know, haha. Pieces that add interest by offering dimension, texture, and/or color can truly enhance your look, effortlessly, and you can still maintain that simple and not so overdone look you feel most comfortable with. It's also a good way to experiment with colors and patterns you may not necessarily feel comfortable wearing in a top or bottom. Also, you don't have to wear a ton of statement pieces combined in one look, as I did here. For example, you can choose to wear a vest/blazer/jacket and printed shoes and that would be enough. Whichever you choose, it'll certainly enhance your outfit and prevent it from appearing as though you put absolutely no effort into getting dressed.
